HD Splinter Cell Trilogy confirmed

It includes high definition updates of the original Splinter Cell, Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow and Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, and will release next year, according to IGN.

Its release follows the launch of Ubisoft's recently released PS3-exclusive Prince of Persia Trilogy. That game was released on Blu-ray disc and as PSN downloads in Europe, with a £29.99 price point and stereoscopic 3D support. Will the Splinter Cell Trilogy follow suit?

The confirmation ends months of speculation - in September online shop Zavvi listed both the Splinter Cell and Prince of Persia Trilogies on its website.
